June 2025 | Rightmove House Price Index
The June 2025 property market shows a slight dip in asking prices but strong buyer demand remains. With more homes on the market and motivated buyers actively searching, it’s a great time for sellers who price smartly. Here’s what you need to know from Rightmove’s latest data.
As we head into summer, the property market continues to show strong signs of activity. While asking prices dipped slightly this month, buyer demand remains solid, offering good opportunities for both buyers and sellers. The latest Rightmove House Price Index gives a clear picture of where the market stands.
Sellers Adjust Prices to Stay Competitive
In June, average asking prices dropped by 0.3% (-£1,277), bringing the national average to £378,240. It’s a rare June dip, reflecting sellers pricing more competitively as more stock hits the market.
With buyer choice at its highest level in a decade, pricing your home right from day one is key. Overpricing can lead to missed interest in those crucial early days. A local Avocado expert can help you set a price that attracts motivated buyers while maximising your return.
Regional Trends: Prices Rising in Some Areas
While national prices eased, some regions are still seeing growth. The North West, Wales, and Yorkshire & The Humber continue to post price rises, while London and the South have seen larger drops due to higher stamp duty and more homes on the market.
Even with this month’s dip, average asking prices remain 0.8% higher than a year ago, a sign of ongoing market strength.
Buyer Demand Stays Strong
Despite more homes available, buyers remain active. May recorded the highest number of sales agreed since March 2022. Buyer demand is 3% up year-on-year, while new listings have risen by 11%.
Rightmove data shows homes receiving an enquiry on their first day are 22% more likely to sell, proving the power of correct pricing and presentation.
What This Means for You
The current market offers real opportunity for sellers who price smartly and present their homes well. With strong buyer activity, more stock, and competitive pricing, now could be a great time to make your move.
